Cyber Security for Managers course is designed for managers and other stakeholders (non-technical executives) who may be involved in decision making regarding their cyber environment but do not have a strong technical background. Discussions will not focus on specific technologies or implementation techniques, but rather cyber security methodologies and the framework for providing a resilient cyber presence.

The course aims to help managers better understand how people and devices work together to protect mission critical assets and more effectively evaluate their cyber posture.

The average data security breach takes less time to pull off than it does to prepare a cup of coffee. In fact, 93% of successful data breaches occur in less than one minute. Yet, 80% of businesses take weeks to realize a breach occurred.

There are many costly consequences of compromised data. This is why 86% of business executives believe cyber security threats, such as weak data security, are concerning (Ref. Business Insider).
